Deep thought for the day

2005 June 29

So I learned first-hand the hazards of being environmentally conscious. As you know, I ride my bike to work … No, not everyday, but I try hard. Well yesterday on my way home — I would have written this yesterday, after I got home, but I needed to dry out — I was absolutely drenched! The rain came down in huge drops, and I was soaked almost immediately, so it really didn’t matter by then that I still had 3/4 of the way still to go. And then the rain started coming down in even larger drops … which I didn’t even think was possible. The only saving grace was that the rain was warm. So it was like taking a shower with my clothes on … not completely unpleasant, but uncomfortable. And at least my hands weren’t frozen to my handlebars!

The rain made the air so much more humid that my clothes, that I hung up overnight, were still noticeably damp this morning. Good times!! Maybe I need a rain hat.

Deep thought for the day…

Some people are like Slinkies…

Not really good for anything, but they still bring a smile to your face when you push them down a flight of stairs.
